In early trade, the Straits Times Index (STI) fell 0.1 per cent to 3,869.64 points after 52.1 million securities changed hands in the broader market.

In terms of companies to watch, we have Seatrium after the offshore and marine specialist inked a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with BP Exploration & Production for a deepwater floating production unit (FPU). 

Elsewhere, from US consumer inflation increasing more than expected in January, to OpenAI simplifying its AI products for users, more international and corporate headlines remain in focus.
